POEM ADDRESSING CONSPIRACY THEORISTS You're right to understand the underlying devious intentions of this poem. You are definitely on to something. You should really examine my other poems too (just google me) and notice the clues I have left behind. You might want to share what you find with others by starting a blog, informing the media, making videos, etc. I have said to my wife and others that I don't understand how few people notice the prophecy in my work. For reasons that are probably obvious to you, I don't want to directly address what I'm not openly addressing, except to say that, yes, I am addressing what you think I am. I know; it blows my mind too!

“To defy power, which seems omnipotent”
“To Hope till Hope creates …” I read both these lines and changed my mind about posting something seasonal.

dabbe Boy, are these words apropos. Thanks. 💜🧡🤎 2mo

#AprilPoetryChallenge #day30 #glitter

“…rocking the glittering coach”.
The Dawn is a poem written by William Butler Yeats which was in a poetry book I own titled, “Poems for Morning”. It is not in Litsy‘s database.
The photo is one I took a recent early morning at dawn.
Lynn I loved reading everyone‘s poems each day this month! Thanks for creating this challenge!

wanderinglynn Lovely! 🧡 And thanks for joining me this month. I‘ve loved reading all these poems. 6mo

#AprilPoetryChallenge #day28 #midnight

This is from Watching the Perseids by Jeff Myers. This book of poems chronicles his father‘s treatment for & death due to cancer, as well as his own responses to the aftermath of his father‘s dying & death. It is authentic, raw, heartbreakingly beautiful.
This book was not in our database.
If you take a photo of this post & enlarge you can read the poem.

I‘m hosting a poetry challenge in April for National Poetry Month. I plan to write 1 poem a day & created a list of prompts. 🖋️

If you don‘t want to write a poem, then the challenge is to read 1 poem a day (bonus if you read one that fits the prompt). 🎉

The graphic is also available on my blog along with my thoughts on poetry: http://wanderinglynn.com/2025/03/20/celebrating-poetry/

Everyone is welcome to join! #aprilpoetrychallenge

peanutnine This is a fun idea! I haven't written poetry in ages, I might try a couple prompts. But I definitely want to make an effort to read more poetry in April 8mo

tpixie Since many of these are nature words, you may love to see this book. The history behind it is incredible. It‘s a response to the Oxford Junior Dictionary omitting 40 words related to nature and instead adding technical words. The author and illustrator were saddened by the disconnect between children and childhood and nature and wrote the book with beautiful illustrations and poetry. 8mo
